Nope, haven't seen it before.  But I would suggest that you start the
daemons one by one like this after taking them all down and sourcing the
Tivoli environment:

ovstart nvsecd
ovstart ovwdb
ovstart trapd

If all these work OK then  just type in   /usr/OV/bin/ovtopmd   on the
command line and watch what happens
If there is an error message which is being swallowed it should show up in
the window.
If you get a message "Opened openview"  then it is working OK

Hope this helps

Subject:  ovtopmd exit on signal 9 after nv5.1.1





We just reinstalled NV5.1 with 5.1.1 patches on top, on Solaris 2.6
(Due to some untidy 5.1.1 upgrade the first time)
However, the ovtopmd daemon failes to start.
Last message: exit on signal 9

Tried the following
1. ovstop nvsecd
2. .  /etc/Tivoli/setup_env.sh
3. ovstart

Has anyone seen this before ?
